<p>I’m a current freshmen at Brandeis. Very few people are in triples this year, I think it depends on how many freshmen end up enrolling (the class is about 30 people smaller, according to an article in this week’s Justice). I’m in a double but I have a few friends in forced triples. There are a few random singles scattered around. The triples are a bit tight, but actually more manageable then you’d think.</p>
<p>They say that the first people to deposit get the best housing, and that later depositors are more likely to get triples. You should confirm this with admissions, though. I got in off of the wait list, and I got a double, so either I got lucky or only people later than me on the wait list are in triples.</p>
<p>Again, it’s pretty rare. You should definitely apply to Brandeis (don’t let the possibility of a triple scare you), I really couldn’t imagine myself anywhere else. Also, note that much of the freshman housing has been renovated relatively recently.</p>
